Your setup looks cool! Very spacious for a house snake.Originally Posted by Rose1
I kept house snakes for over a decade (eventually sold my collection to make room for more ball pythons).
If the top of your cage wobbles at all-it is highly possible your snake can escape-make sure it is firm! Sometimes those latches don't fit perfect.
The ambient (air) temps in any part of the enclosure should not fall below 80F. If the UTH is on the bottom of the tank it is possible that the substrate is thick enough to block the heat from coming through. Mine liked to bask, but, only after they ate. if the heating pad is on the side of the tank above the substrate--then you should be fine (as they are small snakes).
Note: If you have a female she may lay infertile eggs (frequently) regardless of being bred or not.
Best of luck!
